We’ve all seen Denku freestyle. If you haven’t, just look down a few posts. You’ll be impressed. I, for one, have been excited to see what he would put together as a recorded project, and he didn’t disappoint. I personally think Denku could’ve just freestyled like 12 times in one day and put it out as a mixtape if he

Denku is back at it, once again inside the Miramar… sort of. He performed at Stage Right (adjacent to the Miramar) as part of the Border Clash series, and well, this happened. Watch and try to keep up: Share this post:

Speak Easy’s new mixtape, “I’m Just Sayin” is the latest addition to Uni-Fi Records catalog of Milwaukee music. This one has the classic Uni-Fi feel to it throughout, featuring production from several well known local producers. The tape is a prelude to Speak’s full length album, which will be out on Uni-Fi- Records later this year. Check it out here,

R.I.C. and C-Money just released this new track tonight, and my goodness it is worth the listen/download. C-Money and Nate The Great are currently working on the next Super Fresh Bros. mixtape, and if his verse is a preview of what’s in store, everybody better get ready to download that tape. I’ve listened to this three times just to hear

Sleigh Bells just released their second new song off of their new album, “Reign Of Terror”. The first, unbeknownst to me, was released in December. Both carry Sleigh Bells’ signature sound, though. Heavy guitars, mixed with relentless beats. All of this madness is covered up by Alexis Krauss’ innocently sweet voice over the top. Sleigh Bells definitely know how to

J.R. Moon landed on my radar within the last year when I saw him perform at UWM. He has a natural flow that reminds me of a younger version of Young Focus from the Cranberry Show. The “Blastoff!” EP is a diverse tape, in the sense that the feel of each track is different, but it all works together, somehow.

Man, it seems like there’s more new music from the whole Aviator/DDH camp daily. They should just make mixtapes with the title being that day’s date, and the cover could be them holding that day’s Journal Sentinel. Anyway, check out this set from Tion Fresco. I almost feel like this would be great on an old 45. “Lyric Torture” as

Well, it’s late at night. And late at night means you need some smooth music. This track is definitely smooth. Fresh Prince sent me this a few days ago and I’ve finally gotten the chance to give it a listen. The sample is of a Tevin Campbell song. Just out and out smooth. I’m really interested to hear more from

If you’ve been following this blog for a while, you’ve heard of Cezar. Just about every post I’ve had about his music has included that his debut mixtape, “Roman Roulette” was in the works. I think just about every post has mentioned that he sounds hungry in his music as well. This tape is more of the same, in a

Well, if you’re in Milwaukee, and you’ve looked out the window, or checked Facebook, you know it’s snowing. So, why not check out a live set from Rockzsolid? It’s like a live concert just for you. All of the tracks are from RockzSolid’s “For The Love” mixtape, which came out around a month ago. You should listen to it, especially
